Take the said wagon that gets decent MPGs and lift the suspension and body a couple of inches. It is now classified as a light truck for CAFE. This means that it has a lower target for MPG ratings.
I have been seeing several of these in Louisville. I actually passed one this morning.
One of my good friends had an Echo in high school, and still has it today ~12 years later. He drove it as a 3 cylinder for a while.
Don't forget to rev match unless you want a jarring experience.

Movies have always been 24 FPS and TV has always been 30 FPS. Game have not always been 60 FPS either.
